""We're using AI because we don't have resources to do it any other way. AI is what makes it possible.""
""Journalism has a brand problem. Do you really want to dilute your already struggling brand with homogenized (generative AI) imagery so your journalism looks exactly like moisturizer ads?""
""What is gained by having AI slop cartoon reporters? Put them on camera or just have the audio. Don't make your reporting look like a garbage youtube ad people want to skip.""
The Plain Dealer has introduced AI-generated videos on social media, featuring a cartoon mascot named T.T. These videos cover local news but lack AI disclosures, which are essential for audience trust. The newspaper previously used AI to draft stories due to resource limitations. Critics argue that using generative AI dilutes the brand and quality of journalism, comparing it to homogenized imagery in advertisements. Concerns are raised about the impact of AI on the perception of news and its authenticity.
